Sunday, August 13 marks the annual Left Handers Day. It’s the one 24-hour period set aside each year to celebrate just us left-handed people, but it's alright righties you can join in on the fun too.

We’ve had to overcome a lot through the years: smudged hands while trying to write, fumbling around with scissors more suitable for our right-handed friends and repeatedly bumping your hand while trying to write in a binder.

In fact, five of the last eight US presidents were lefties (Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, George H.W. Bush, Ronald Reagan and Gerald Ford all were part of the lef-handed club). According to LeftHandersDay.com, one in four Apollo astronauts were left-handed, an astronomical 250% more lefties than the normal level of probability for the group.
